Chair's Message
Two years into the COVID-19 pandemic, it is more important than ever to foster the development of medical investigators, promote scholarly research, and disseminate results to the public.
The AFMR Eastern Section Council invites you to join a diverse group of researchers to promote the mission and goals of AFMR. As an Eastern Region AFMR member, you can submit top quality research and presentations for the 2022 meeting, apply for AFMR National Awards, and publish your studies in AFMR journals.
Our 2021 Eastern Regional Meeting was held virtually in April because of coronavirus. Although our interactions with meeting participants was limited to the online environment, the conference was a success — as demonstrated by the presentation of a wide array of scholarly research and invited talks. You can view the Eastern Regional Meeting virtual presentations on this page in the near future.
Our vibrant AFMR community offers a multitude of opportunities to connect with your peers and colleagues, expand your network and engage in educational activities that will enhance your professional life.
We encourage you to explore our website and communicate with us directly with your ideas and suggestions. We look forward to your active participation in the Eastern Region and welcome your scholarly contributions to medical research.
